“The fried chicken here is juicy and delicious! Basically you walk in, order at a kiosk, seat yourself, and they call your number when your order is ready. Very easy to order and understand the menu at the kiosk. Digitizing their ordering service though creates an environment where tables aren’t turned over necessarily. Lots of syrupy/saucy/sticky meals leads to a pretty sticky table and floors. The food, however, was phenomenal. We got the smashville sandwich and chicken w/ French toast and both were 10/10 on flavor and portion size! The kitchen staff was working hard and pumping orders out quickly. They all had a smile on their face too. Would recommend if you’re craving fried chicken!“
“This whole review could be dedicated to the atmosphere, but that would do a disservice to the rest of the experience. Top level service, comfortable but classy vibe, and wonderful food. Each dish was nuanced, layered with flavor and texture. The crab cakes were indeed all crab, and the potato leek soup was absolute velvet, wonderful and creamy. The Devil's in the Details for dessert ❤️❤️❤️“
“I came here for a work event and we were directed to the event space. I got the short rib and a couple others got the salmon. Both were wonderful.Drinks were a little slow but heavily poured and made for a lively evening.The night was made by the service given by Rylee. She took the time to connect with everybody and made us all feel welcome while giving wonderful service. Her patience and expertise made the night a wonderful experience!“
“This was my first visit to Southern Kitchen. I had every intention of ordering an entreé, but there was so much deliciousness in the egg roll and so many catfish bites, I didn't have room for anything else. I did have a drink, and the bartender meant she wanted us to enjoy ourselves! I will definitely visit again, and I hope it's sooner than later!“
“Mimosas were delicious. Waiter was a doll. Long wait on a Sunday afternoon for brunch - expected of course, they don’t take resys. Overall great spot. I ordered the short rib with mashed potatoes and Brussels. So so good. My friend got the crab dip/craft beer/biscuits and gravy with a side of deviled eggs. She loved it.“
“Easily the best BBQ I’ve had in quite some time. The brisket was melt in your mouth and the sauces (I tried all of them) complimented the meat so well. Can’t wait to go back and try the ribs. The table next to us ordered them and said they were top notch. We also had a large group with 6 children under 6 yo and ate in their dining room. Owner and staff took great care of us. We will 1000% be returning. Thank you!“
“Me and daughter had a great lunch and Jamilla our server was a joy. Greeted with a big smile and was so helpful helping us decide. The service was quick, food was hot, delicious and enough to take home. If your in richmond stop by. You won’t be disappointed.“
“I ate here last week. Not as good as I remembered, but still pretty good. Shrimp and grits were, good, not the best, but not bad 3.7 out of 5. Happy hour drinks were just okay too, the Paloma. I don't think I'll return anytime soon.“
“I took some friends out for their engagement celebration to The Roosevelt and couldn't have made a better choice. The waitress was great. The food was excellent! My girlfriend said it was some of the best scallops she's ever had. Shout out to Will who graciously treated the table to a nice wine for the happy couple!“
“Great options on food. I had the eggs Benedict and it was okay. Sauce was lacking a little flavor but still good. Atmosphere is great and the service is awesome. Would definitely suggest getting there early as the place fills up fast for brunch.“
“Strangeways has a great selection of brews and an inviting atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a drink with friends and family and they frequently host events, such as Blues Rock night and local food truck vendors. They’ve built up a solid community. Definitely recommend checking them out if you’re looking for a quality local brewery in Richmond.“
“I got the Chicken Fiesta soup and the Jalapeño Holly chicken salad…it was my first time there. I was not at all impressed with the soup! It was MUSHY and Watery….however; The chicken salad was very flavorful….I didn’t have to add any pepper or salt (lol) and I ate every drop! It made up for the soup I had to trash…..AND I’m a picky eater! It was pretty good for the first time (and I’m basing that off of the chicken salad alone) - I will definitely try again though…but not the soup.“
“Truly a five star experience! From the homemade cornbread, decadent pimento cheese fried green tomatoes, to the fish stewed in sweet potato puree and finally the the toffee cake with homemade ice cream; this place is an absolute treat. Excellent service and food.“
“We decided to stop in here after an overnight stay in DC. It was the best idea for food in a LONG time.To start off, the sweet tea was real sweet tea. It was not oversteeped with too much/little sugar but PERFECT for my southern heart!I ordered the catfish with greens and candied yams and was sorry for requesting cocktail sauce for the fish. It was real catfish that should be eaten with hot sauce (which I did) not some premade something.The greens had a slightly sweet savory that took some getting used to, but the candied yams helped with masking that when I did the "fork full of everything" thing.Dana was a charm and was right on time, very attentive without hovering.I'm already thinking about the hour's drive I'm ready to take to enjoy this place again.“
“Small restaurant attached to our hotel (Linden Row Inn). Perfect for late dinner after check in. Excellent service, good cocktails and the food was good as well. Husband loved his Fish and Chips. Two guests had the Smash-burger and said it was a bit dry. Could have used a special sauce. I had the autumn salad with shrimp. It hit the spot. Appetizers were excellent - fried oysters and green tomatoes were great.“
“I can't give it a 5 because the food is good but they run out of food. The customer service is good, but it takes forever to get it. I wish they had a way to order before you get there because otherwise, you are standing outside in a long line cold,hot, rain,or snow.“

“I came to Virginia on business travel wanted some soul food coworker told me about Jackie’s restaurant great atmosphere amazing customer service Liz was on point the food is everything fresh hot well portioned Pep greeted me this queen made me so welcomed definitely will be back“
“Harold, Harold, Harold…..lemme tell you how I was driving through these streets of Richmond with one knee and my fork going ham on this food. EVERYTHING WAS DELICIOUS and I am a major foodie so it takes a lot for me to be pleased. When I’m in the city or driving by I plan to stop by you have a customer for life from me! Great hospitality, prompt service, wonderful personality, and some of the best soul food I’ve had in a while. Thank you! For making my day!“
“Love Big Herm's .. their old restaurant 'The Corner' was my parents favorite restaurant for a while.. so we ate there often when I was growing up! I still like to go to Big Herms! Great sides, them yams !! nah it's the mashed sweet potatoes ? ? ❤️?❤️?Kid-friendliness: It's limited seating , and mostly to-go I believe“
“Patrick's is a longstanding pillar of Southside, a smoky dive bar atmosphere packed with heart and soul. This place honestly captured my heart because the food was amazing and the people were so much more.Sit at the bar, order a cheeseburger, and talk to the regulars about their lives. There really is no other place in Chesterfield like Patrick's. I'll be back soon and will post some food shots after.Real, authentic, and absolutely wonderful.“
“The food was very good and the setting was very nice. We asked for a table by a window if possible and the Hostess was a able to seated us by a window. The toast my Mother had was burnt around the edges and the Waitress didn't ask what kind of bread she wanted. I will in the future looking at what Waitress/Waiter are working and ask if we can be seated in their area if possible. I know I have seen several new faces. I have had two Christmas Breakfast and they have been very very nice and had the same Waitress both years. Looking forward to Christmas Breakfast this year. Thanks Ed Taylor“
“What I should've said is Hollywood is a great server and human being because he is my friend. I shouldn't of posted that I was in the heat of the moment because he's out here really trying to make it and I know him he would never ever do something disgusting like that. He had me take it down because it was a body shaming post and I shouldn't of done that and I apologize but Hollywood is literally a good guy and this crushed him. I hated to see him in that state....“
“Probably the best brisket in the city. Tender, juicy, and full of flavor. Pairs up perfectly with any of the homemade BBQ sauces. Unforbidden Fruit BBQ sauce sweetened with apples is unique and is definitely a prize winning sauce.Burnt Ends were also very good. No sauce needed on those.More of a take out atmosphere, but there is some seating inside and a few tables outside. Worth staying on site to eat your food fresh and hot off the chopping block. Highly recommended when you need to get your BBQ fix.“
